Dental Hygiene

Pregnancy is a time when you want to be as healthy as possible, and good health includes the care of your teeth and gums. Have a dental checkup early in pregnancy. It is recommended that your dental health be maintained during pregnancy. Be sure to tell your dentist you are pregnant. Discuss the use of anesthetic agents, x-rays, and pain medication. If either you or your dentist have questions regarding a dental health plan, one of the physicians in the practice is available to help guide treatment.
